It seems that I haven't seen such a mortal life for a long time.
The two of them pressed their heads down and walked to the entrance of the village. There was a stone monument at the entrance of the village, on which the name of Hulu Village was written.
This reminded Lin Yun of the seven gourd babies. If they are settled here, they will be taken over.
I don't know how Yang Jian educated them.
Seeing Lin Yun and Huang Gu's luxurious clothes, extraordinary appearance, and imposing manner, the people in this village also came up and asked, "Where did you come from?"
"Well, my sister and I lost our way and walked down the river from the forest. We really don't know where this is. I hope you can tell us."
When Huang Gu heard Lin Yun say that she was his sister, he looked at Lin Yun a few more times.
But Lin Yun said that the problem is not big, I can bear it.
"Young master, this is Hulu Village, Xianlin Town, Hukou County, Linzhou, Michelin State." An old man stepped forward and cupped his hands.
Lin Yun nodded, thinking that the country of Miqi is in Dongshengbu Prefecture.
Of course, it is a bit far away from Datang. The nearest big force is the East China Sea Dragon Clan, but the problem is not big, at least the current Dragon Clan is not very good.
"Old man, I'm a little tired after being away for the past few days. I want to stay in Guicun for a few days. I hope you accept it." Lin Yun took out a few gold ingots.
The old man refused to accept it, but he accepted it after some persuasion, and then the old man and several people from the village found a reasonably clean courtyard for Lin Yun and Huang Gu, cleaned it up and brought some food and drink.
"By the way, aren't you going to establish a new sect? Why did you live in this small village?" Empress Huang Gu and Lin Yun faced each other, asking a little strangely.
"Don't worry, there is a cave here. If you find this entrance, you can get a good Zongmen residence."
In the evening, Lin Yun, who had other ideas, borrowed the village chronicle of Calabash Village, which recorded the origin of Calabash Village.
Seeing that Lin Yun had brought a book, Huang Gu also went to read it, but he didn't know the world characters here.
"Do you know this text?"
"I don't know." Huang Gu's answer was straightforward.
"Okay, I'll read it to you."
According to legend, once upon a time there was a poor man with only one old mother in his family.
Although this peddler is poor, he sells things at very low prices and is honest, so every time he goes to a farm, they surround him: change a needle, pull some thread; buy a thimble, and cut off the hair rope.
However, because they don't know how to find rare goods and earn the difference, the business is not good, and sometimes they lose money and have to borrow food from others.
Seeing that my mother is getting older, the peddler may go out to sell goods, and my mother has no one to take care of her at home, so she only sells goods in a nearby village, so she can go home to take care of her sooner or later.
One day, he came to a nearby village with a load of shopkeepers, and saw a group of children playing with a little bird.
Seeing that the little bird was about to die, the shopkeeper felt pitiful.He walked up to the group of children and took out some candy from the seller's bag to distribute to the little kids.
The little boy got the licorice, so he let the little bird go.
However, the little bird was already immobile.The shopkeeper wanted to send the Buddha to the West.
So, as soon as he put the little bird in the burden, he didn't sell the goods, and went home.When the shopkeeper came home, he handed the little bird to the old mother as soon as he entered the house. He was looking for rice for the little bird and catching worms for the little bird.
A few days later, the little bird woke up.The salesman put it on the palm of his hand and let it fly away.When the little bird flew away, he couldn't help but shed a few tears.
The little bird flew away, and he and his mother lived a poor life as usual.
One day, the shopkeeper was about to go out to sell his goods early in the morning, when he saw a little bird with a gourd in its mouth, flying towards him and landing on his shoulder, calling three times: "Talk to it if you need anything!"
Drop the gourd and fly away again.
It turned out that this was the blue bird beside the Queen Mother of the West, and it was sending the will from afar.On the way back, he accidentally fell into the world, was caught by some naughty children, and almost died.
Of course, the Queen Mother of the West here does not refer to the Queen Mother, but an ancient god of West Kunlun.
Thanks to the shopkeeper for saving this blue bird, this time, it specially came from West Kunlun to repay its kindness.
As for the concave waist gourd, it is a precious gourd.How did the shopkeeper know, he was standing in a daze with a gourd in his hand.
After that, the salesman made several wishes with the gourd, and some bad guys had some twists and turns, but in the end he lived a happy life.
"Do you think this record is true?" Huang Gu had some doubts about this story.
"But the cave I discovered before is indeed nearby, so you can go and have a look."
The next day, when the two flew over the village again to observe the panorama, they suddenly found that the gourd village really looked like a gourd.
And the river that flowed out of the forest, after passing through the gourd village, split into two and twisted into a gourd shape, then merged into one again and flowed into the distance.
This is a bit interesting, the legend is so, but so is his terrain.
I just don't know whether it is the terrain that created this legend, or the legend that this is how the gourd village was formed.
It seems that the flow of aura has changed.
So Lin Yun calmed down, closed his eyes, and slowly felt the fluctuation of the water potential in the mountains.
In fact, Lin Yun didn't suddenly have such an idea, but Lin Yun himself knew that his luck was flourishing in the wilderness, just like the old saying that the phoenix does not fall without treasure.
Since I have come here and have such a legend, it means that there should be a chance here.
But since it was in front of my eyes, it was indeed a bit difficult to detect. I could only vaguely feel that the machine-installed ape was at the entrance of the village, that is to say, at the place where the river was divided into two, but I couldn't feel the exact form.
"Desolate Empress, you feel it too, right?"
"Yes, I also felt it, but it seems that the opening port of this cave does not appear all the time, and we need to observe it for a few more days, and wait for a point where the aura fluctuates more heavily before we can find it." The ancient empress also gave made his own suggestion.
The two returned to the small courtyard. The two were idle and bored, and opened the village chronicle again. Lin Yun continued to read the recorded story to Huang Gu.
It records that the shopkeeper relied on the gourd that Jade Bird brought to him, got a wife and a place to live, and lived a good life.
Of course, the wife is the incarnation of the gourd.
However, three days had passed since the good days, and disaster was imminent.
On this day, suddenly a local prefect passed by here.He saw that the house in this small courtyard was built beautifully and exquisitely, so he asked someone to ask who the owner was.As soon as he heard that he was a poor peddler, he wanted to occupy the peddler's house and courtyard.
At that time, he sent Yamen servants to tie up the shopkeeper and take him to the government.He insisted that this house was built by stealing other people's things.
The salesman was too honest, so he told the eunuch what had happened.
When the prefect heard it, he didn't believe it at first, but felt strange, so he sent the shopkeeper back and ordered him to dig a river outside the yard and build a small bridge within three days. One catty.
If you can't do it, you will be sentenced to a heavier sentence. The salesman had no choice but to agree because he missed his mother and wife.
